[Verse 1]
Dear mommas:
Don't believe everything
That you hear and you read
It only breeds the defeat
Feeds into things we don't want and don't need
We wish we could stay, but you know we must leave
Let all these freaks see the ink in our sleeves
Sometimes we just need what you think we don't need
How can we dream, when we don't even sleep?
And how can I help you, when I can not help me?
Millions of fish in the sea
Including me, no wonder sink
Out of our leagues, and into their schemes
Need an escape like the corner left key
Some beg to be heard, til they can't even breathe
Some move with the herd, to never be seen
The architecture is so unnassured
Can we just converge while we on this Earth? And see
[Hook] (Howie Stackz)
If I had a choice I can't say I would do it your way
Every time I open up my mouth you always got something to say
So tell me if I'm doing done did it right
Cuz if I ain't have you to tell me what's right how would I survive?
[Verse 2]
Hey friends I'm back
Can we focus upon the facts?
Ocean views in hotel rooms after funerals, is that blessed?
Alone when you wake up in the morning
Alone in the middle of the party
You smile so they won't think about it
Denial don't really know when it started
And they said "ride til you die" if you want it
They said "grind til you die" if you want it
You in a fight with yourself at the moment
Family's back home not knowing where you're going
It's hard to fight perfect when you don't know your opponent
A little stressed out, smoke a little marijuana
In the city of the Wind, in the middle of the summer
Always try to catch your breath, but you can't quit running
[Bridge]
They tell me all this, still I don't care
My life is a mess, OK, I'm aware
